00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

In the light of what's happening to our brothers and sisters and

00:00:08 --> 00:00:12

Philistine the atrocities that are taking place, I wanted to share a

00:00:12 --> 00:00:16

story for young brothers and sisters around the world, our

00:00:16 --> 00:00:20

youth who want to understand exactly what is happening out

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

there. Want to give you a short story of a Muslim boy,

00:00:24 --> 00:00:29

Muslim boy went to the school for the second semester, the year he

00:00:29 --> 00:00:34

walked into the class, he goes to his seat. His seat was in the

00:00:34 --> 00:00:39

corner, far into the class right next to the window, overseeing the

00:00:39 --> 00:00:44

garden that's outside. And everyone loved looking outside of

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

that window, which his seat was right next to him.

00:00:48 --> 00:00:52

He sat in his seat and he always enjoyed the birds chirping right

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

next to the window he sat next to.

00:00:56 --> 00:01:00

He looked outside as a teacher was explaining he smelled the fresh

00:01:00 --> 00:01:04

air when the window was open. Everyone in class enjoyed looking

00:01:04 --> 00:01:06

out that window that was next to his desk.

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

His teacher liked him was a smart kid.

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

His classmates respected him as well. And he had a good

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

relationship with them as well.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

But one day, boy comes in

00:01:23 --> 00:01:27

is slightly bigger than him larger, you know, blue and buff

00:01:28 --> 00:01:33

tells me I want you to get off that seat right there. I liked

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

that desk. It's putting me in. This is my desk.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

I've been sitting here since the beginning of the year, and I was

00:01:40 --> 00:01:41

assigned this desk

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

here but I like it

00:01:46 --> 00:01:47

is what the bully said.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:49

I want to

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

say I had a little scuffle with him. He grabbed the Muslim boy who

00:01:54 --> 00:01:58

was a little bit smaller and build didn't have that much muscle. He

00:01:58 --> 00:02:03

tried to defend himself. But then the bully shoved them off the desk

00:02:03 --> 00:02:04

and he sat on the desk.

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

The young Muslim boy looked at the teacher looked at the classmates.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

He tried to resist. He saw that the teacher didn't say anything to

00:02:12 --> 00:02:13

him.

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

He tried to complain but the teacher told them okay, just have

00:02:17 --> 00:02:19

a seat in this other desk.

00:02:21 --> 00:02:24

He didn't know what to do. He just sat another desk and waited.

00:02:26 --> 00:02:29

The teacher said all sorted out later. We'll take care of it.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:29

Don't worry about it.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

But that never happened.

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

Lunchtime came couple days later.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

This bully didn't bring any lunch with him. So he went up to this

00:02:41 --> 00:02:45

young Muslim boy. And he told him give me your lunch. I'm hungry.

00:02:45 --> 00:02:47

It's like wait, this is my lunch.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

I can give it I can just give it to you.

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

The bully said I want it. I want it. I'm hungry. Give it to me

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

* the lunch off the desk. The Muslim tried to defend it. tried

00:03:00 --> 00:03:05

to take his lunch back. The bully shoved them. He fell down. And he

00:03:05 --> 00:03:09

just spent that day without lunch. That's very sad.

00:03:11 --> 00:03:14

One day actually in the locker room. He was changing for a gym as

00:03:14 --> 00:03:18

he came to school with slippers. So as he was putting his sneakers

00:03:18 --> 00:03:22

on, he had some brand new Jordans that his grandma got him a couple

00:03:22 --> 00:03:23

of weeks back.

00:03:24 --> 00:03:27

He was putting his new Jordans on the bully saw him putting them on.

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29

He's like, hey,

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

I want those Jordans. I like them. They look nice. They care but

00:03:34 --> 00:03:38

they're mine. He shoved them. He took his Jordans.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:39

And

00:03:41 --> 00:03:44

he couldn't do anything about it. tried to resist he tried to fight

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46

back. But this kid was too strong.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:49

All his classmates were staring.

00:03:50 --> 00:03:55

Sometimes some of them would would show some resentment. Say hey, you

00:03:55 --> 00:03:59

know, I don't like what's being done to you. Some of them would

00:03:59 --> 00:04:02

tell none of them would tell the bully to stop.

00:04:05 --> 00:04:08

But unfortunately, this kept happening.

00:04:09 --> 00:04:13

Once his allowance and his sneakers as lunch again, that beat

00:04:13 --> 00:04:17

up in the playground. And it just kept happening over and over

00:04:17 --> 00:04:18

again.

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

The boy tried to contact as the school tried to contact the boys

00:04:24 --> 00:04:28

mom and dad but they were busy because, you know they were in a

00:04:28 --> 00:04:31

separated relationship. And you know they were divorced. Each one

00:04:31 --> 00:04:34

was in a house and the boy would live two days here and then two

00:04:34 --> 00:04:38

days in the other house. And every time they called his father they

00:04:38 --> 00:04:42

would say he would say talk to his mom and every time they would talk

00:04:42 --> 00:04:45

to his mom they would the mom would say talk to his dad. I don't

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47

have time I'm busy.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

So they were supposed to be responsible for him but

00:04:52 --> 00:04:53

unfortunately they didn't come through.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:55

It was very sad.

00:04:57 --> 00:04:58

So the we had to fend for himself.

00:05:00 --> 00:05:05

One day, he got really fed up. And he said to himself, you know, if I

00:05:05 --> 00:05:09

don't defend myself against this bully, if I don't do something to

00:05:09 --> 00:05:13

him, after all the allowances, all the lunches, everything he did to

00:05:13 --> 00:05:18

me, my sneakers, he's sitting in my desk, which I loved. And I can

00:05:18 --> 00:05:22

only pay attention in class when I'm sitting in that desk. I hate

00:05:22 --> 00:05:26

the place where I'm sitting now, all the way in the back corner, I

00:05:26 --> 00:05:27

can't even hear the teacher talk.

00:05:30 --> 00:05:34

The boy goes home that day, he looks at his father's drawer, and

00:05:34 --> 00:05:39

he finds some thick rings, graduation rings that his father

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41

had from back in the day, he found four of them.

00:05:43 --> 00:05:47

So he thought of a plan he like, you know, I can take these rings

00:05:47 --> 00:05:47

to school.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:53

I'm aware all of it. And when this bully takes my lunch next time,

00:05:54 --> 00:05:59

I'm really gonna give it to him. So he goes one day and the bully

00:05:59 --> 00:06:04

took his lunch from you sitting down. And as this bully was eating

00:06:04 --> 00:06:06

by himself on the table,

00:06:07 --> 00:06:08

came

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11

from the side and followed.

00:06:12 --> 00:06:15

He whacked him with a punch right on the mouth.

00:06:16 --> 00:06:20

Breaking the bullies three teeth. His three front teeth route, God

00:06:21 --> 00:06:26

fell on the floor, the blood was gushing people were just everybody

00:06:26 --> 00:06:29

came all the teachers, and the students were looking, oh my god,

00:06:29 --> 00:06:34

I can't believe he did this. All of a sudden, this young Muslim boy

00:06:35 --> 00:06:40

was the criminal. All everybody was looking at him, like, how

00:06:40 --> 00:06:44

could you do such a thing? Look what you did to his mouth. Look

00:06:44 --> 00:06:48

what you did to his teeth. They took the boy, they rushed. They

00:06:48 --> 00:06:52

rushed him to an ambulance, took him to the office. They had to,

00:06:53 --> 00:06:58

they had to, you know, put put all types of you know, wash his mouth

00:06:58 --> 00:06:59

out in the blood and whatnot.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

But the Muslim boy got really in trouble.

00:07:07 --> 00:07:09

They took them to the office.

00:07:10 --> 00:07:14

Turns out this bully is the principal son. And that's why he

00:07:14 --> 00:07:15

never got in trouble.

00:07:18 --> 00:07:22

And he found this out. So when he went to class, when he went to the

00:07:22 --> 00:07:23

office,

00:07:24 --> 00:07:27

he was put in like in the naughty corner.

00:07:29 --> 00:07:34

And then the principal yelled and screamed and stomped and showed

00:07:34 --> 00:07:41

him showed him how angry she was over what this young Western boy

00:07:41 --> 00:07:43

did to her her bully son.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:48

Her son came back and she told her son,

00:07:49 --> 00:07:54

look, I want you to beat up this little Muslim kid. The same way he

00:07:54 --> 00:07:57

punched you, I want you to punch him back. And you can kick them,

00:07:58 --> 00:08:01

you can slap him, you could pull his hair and do whatever you want

00:08:01 --> 00:08:06

him. It's okay. And the teachers, they won't say anything. It's

00:08:06 --> 00:08:09

alright. Because I'm their boss, and I'm in charge of them.

00:08:12 --> 00:08:17

The teachers, they all want to class they quietly and as the

00:08:17 --> 00:08:21

bully is beating this Muslim boy in office

00:08:22 --> 00:08:28

for kids passed by the front office's window, and they see this

00:08:28 --> 00:08:33

happening inside. But they don't stay silent. They spoke amongst

00:08:33 --> 00:08:38

themselves. And they said, Hey, we can't just let this happen. Let's

00:08:38 --> 00:08:43

go to class. Let's go to all the classes in school and tell them

00:08:43 --> 00:08:48

all to come out and protest in the middle of the hallway and not go

00:08:48 --> 00:08:53

into the classroom until this young Muslim boy gets out of

00:08:53 --> 00:08:57

trouble and back into his class and back onto his desk.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:01

So they went to all the classes and they told them what was

00:09:01 --> 00:09:06

happening. And they all marched into the hallway. And they started

00:09:06 --> 00:09:10

yelling, and the bell rang. And it was class time and the teachers

00:09:10 --> 00:09:13

are telling the kids everyone go back into class. And the kids are

00:09:14 --> 00:09:18

all protesting saying no, we will never go back to class. You have

00:09:18 --> 00:09:22

to take this young boy out out of the office. He's being beat

00:09:23 --> 00:09:28

unjustly and we don't want to stay patient. We will not go back to

00:09:28 --> 00:09:31

class until he comes out in the office.

00:09:32 --> 00:09:35

The principal the principal started to announce and Entercom

00:09:35 --> 00:09:39

everyone back into class everyone back into class but no one

00:09:39 --> 00:09:44

listened. They started to chant * no, we won't go * no, we

00:09:44 --> 00:09:47

all go. And everyone was marching in the hallways. The chief

00:09:47 --> 00:09:51

teachers tried to put the kids in the class but they refused. The

00:09:52 --> 00:09:56

principal came out and stomped in front of all of them. And she

00:09:56 --> 00:09:57

yelled

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

everyone in the hallway when

00:10:00 --> 00:10:03

We'll be suspended if you don't go back to class right now.

00:10:07 --> 00:10:10

A few of the kids went back to class because they were scared of

00:10:10 --> 00:10:10

getting suspended.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:17

But everyone else stomped and marched and they stayed in the

00:10:17 --> 00:10:21

middle of that hallway. And they said, We will not go until you let

00:10:21 --> 00:10:24

this young Muslim boy out of the office.

00:10:25 --> 00:10:30

And you send them back to his class, and you put them on his

00:10:30 --> 00:10:31

desk.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:37

And you let them be a student, and treat him fairly, just like

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

everyone else.

00:10:40 --> 00:10:42

And the principal said, No,

00:10:44 --> 00:10:47

I'm going to suspend all of you. And then one of the smart kids,

00:10:47 --> 00:10:50

those four kids that saw him in the window, he said, Hey, you

00:10:50 --> 00:10:55

can't suspend all of us, because then you won't even have a job. If

00:10:55 --> 00:10:58

you suspend everybody in here, then what's the point of being a

00:10:58 --> 00:11:02

principal, you wouldn't even have to come to work tomorrow. We know

00:11:02 --> 00:11:08

you can't do that. Just treat the young Muslim boy fairly, and send

00:11:08 --> 00:11:13

them back to class and put them on a desk. And we would all go back

00:11:13 --> 00:11:16

to class. And guess what

00:11:17 --> 00:11:23

the principal eventually gave in. And she said, Okay, he can go back

00:11:23 --> 00:11:25

to class, and go back on his desk.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:31

And because of these young was because of these young boys, and

00:11:31 --> 00:11:35

girls that saw him being punished, that saw him being beat in the

00:11:35 --> 00:11:40

office, and they came up with a plan. And they protested, and they

00:11:40 --> 00:11:43

went out and they made sure that everyone in school knew about

00:11:43 --> 00:11:47

this, because they all knew everyone in school saw him being

00:11:47 --> 00:11:52

bullied old time, so it didn't take much for them to stand up for

00:11:52 --> 00:11:55

what is right. Now I want to ask you guys

00:11:57 --> 00:11:58

in the story,

00:11:59 --> 00:12:03

who do you think he wants to be like?

00:12:05 --> 00:12:10

If there is a boy being bullied, would you want to stand up for

00:12:10 --> 00:12:10

him?

00:12:11 --> 00:12:16

Of course, every Muslim should stand up for justice. We all have

00:12:16 --> 00:12:20

to be like those students that protested in the hallway, and

00:12:20 --> 00:12:24

didn't let the bully do what they want to do and didn't let the

00:12:24 --> 00:12:27

principal get away with her unjust treatment.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:33

The young Muslim boy in the story is what's happening to our

00:12:33 --> 00:12:35

brothers and sisters in Palestine.

00:12:36 --> 00:12:40

In front of our eyes, we can all see it. The atrocities that take

00:12:40 --> 00:12:48

place and the bully is a Surah Eve, funded by its own parent.

00:12:52 --> 00:12:55

We need to stand up and do something for our brothers and

00:12:55 --> 00:12:56

sisters in Palestine.

00:12:57 --> 00:13:01

See these young boys the four that went to all the classes and told

00:13:01 --> 00:13:05

all the students to protest in the hallway. And they stood up for

00:13:05 --> 00:13:05

what's just

00:13:06 --> 00:13:12

what's your plan? To stand up for what's just and what's what's

00:13:12 --> 00:13:19

true. And what do what you need to do for your brothers and sisters

00:13:19 --> 00:13:23

that are oppressed, that are being beaten and tortured and murdered

00:13:23 --> 00:13:24

every single day.

00:13:25 --> 00:13:31

Children and women are out of their houses being buried, day in

00:13:31 --> 00:13:32

day out.

00:13:33 --> 00:13:38

We need to stand up for it. And we need to be strong sisters. Now is

00:13:38 --> 00:13:43

the time just because you're young doesn't mean you can't know the

00:13:43 --> 00:13:48

truth. Learn about Palestine and learn about your brothers and

00:13:48 --> 00:13:53

sisters and think before you go to sleep at night how you're going to

00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
